ZigBee 3.0 will solve the problem of intelligent lighting interoperability

About a year ago, the ZigBee Alliance, a non-profit organization that created open global IoT standards for consumer, commercial and industrial applications, announced a high-profile announcement of its market-leading wireless standard as a single standard for ZigBee 3.0, and in 2015 Officially launched in the fourth quarter.

In March of this year, the Networked Lighting Alliance announced the recognition of ZigBee 3.0 as the preferred open standard for home networking lighting applications, simplifying the choice for lighting companies and consumers.

As a re-consolidation of past standards, ZigBee 3.0 is not a breakthrough technical specification, but ZigBee 3.0 covers the widest range of equipment types, enabling ZigBee-based standards in different fields to be “unified” for home automation and connected lighting. Communication and interoperability with equipment in areas such as energy conservation. Developers can also define all device types, commands, and features based on the ZigBee PRO standard with new standards.

Interoperability is an important factor in the entry of smart lighting into the home market. To give a simple example, consumers bought a smart lighting LED light, and when they got home, they found that they couldn't connect to their home WiFi. Only by solving the problem of interoperability, consumers can purchase smart lighting products with confidence. Only by solving the interoperability problem can it be possible to build a smart home ecosystem that will enable products to enter the mainstream market, not just high-tech products that are affordable to a small group of people.

At present, WiFi, Bluetooth and other ZigBee are the mainstream wireless communication technologies in the field of intelligent lighting, and they are competing for each other in the competition for a huge market. To some extent, ZigBee approved by the Connected Lighting Alliance has the upper hand. The Connected Lighting Alliance consists of 37 members, including the world's leading lighting companies. The mission of the Alliance is to support open standards and promote the widespread adoption of wireless lighting solutions worldwide.
